Adenosine release was documented in lung tissue exposed to hypoxic conditions or antigen challenge. Exogenous adenosine potentiates mediator release from stimulated rat serosal and mouse bone marrow-derived mast cells. To investigate the production and release of adenosine from stimulated mast cells, rat serosal mast cells were purified on metrizamide gradients, sensitized with anti-dinitrophenol IgE for 30 min at 37.degree. C and challenged in the presence of 1 .mu.M deoxycoformycin with either dinitrophenol-conjugated bovine serum albumin antigen, the Ca ionophore A23187 or compound 48/80. Reactions were terminated by centrifugation, and the supernatants and pellets were assayed for adenosine and ATP content, respectively, by high performance liquid chromatography. The adenosine concentration of the supernatants increased from 0.036 .+-. 0.003 nmol/106 cells to 0.049, 0.056 and 0.129 nmol/106 cells 60 s after challenge with antigen, 48/80 or A23187, respectively. After ionophore stimulation, increased extracellular adenosine was evident by 15 s, peaked by 60 s, and remained constant for at least 5 min. A signficiant decline in stimulated ATP levels was observed within 30 s, suggesting that the enhanced adenosine concentrations may result from the breakdown of ATP. Cultured mouse bone marrow-derived mast cells under similar conditions also displayed augmented extracellular adenosine levels with A23187 challenge. This endogenous source of adenosine may act locally through a positive feedback mechanism to potentiate immediate hypersensitivity reactions.
